LIZ O’GORMAN RIP

It is with great sadness that Glenalbyn Tennis Club have to announce the sudden death of Liz O’Gorman on Tuesday night in Glenalbyn during a League match. We know it must be a huge shock to her husband Jack and all
her family and friends as it is to everyone at the club. It is still so hard to
believe as Liz has been such a big part of the club since its foundation. She
passed on her passion for tennis to so many people and was so greatly loved and
admired by all. Her legacy will live on for many years to come. She died doing
what she loved and she will be sadly missed by everyone.

Huge
thanks to all who responded so quickly on Tuesday night and made sure the emergency
services were at the club within minutes. Liz would have been very proud of the
response and how everyone worked as a team.

Liz’s
family and friends will be coming back to the club after the funeral on Friday,
so as a mark of respect the courts will be closed all day
Friday.

Funeral
arrangements are as follows:

Reposing
at her residence on Thursday evening from 6 o’clock to 8 o’clock. Funeral Mass
on Friday morning at 10 o’clock in the Church of St. Laurence O’Toole, Kilmacud
followed by cremation in Mount Jerome, Harold’s Cross. Family flowers only.
Donations in lieu to Autism Ireland.
